You can use Emacs to manage your research, write articles, books and websites and publish these to different formats. Emacs the most powerful software tool ever invented, but its learning curve can be quite steep.

I looked at this last year and liked it. I ended up sticking with my old setup: using a markdown editing app with leanpub.com for my manuscripts, and Apple Notes to manage research notes.

I think your system is very good, but I decided to stick with my super-simple setup. I have been using emacs for 40 years but use it less now, favoring specialized setups. I mostly use eMacs now for programming with various Lisp languages and I like my Python emacs workflow.
